Bangsar Shopping
Bangsar Village, Mid Valley Shopping mall, Night Markets
Bangsar isn't particularly known for its shopping, but there are still a large number of shopping outlets and a few malls in the area. Of particular note is a night market that takes place here on Sundays from early evening till late night. This, coupled with the night life in the area, provides for some fantastic sight-seeing and shopping opportunities. Bangsar Shopping MallsIn Bangsar, there are two main shopping malls which are the Bangsar Village located in Telawi and the Bangsar Shopping Centre along Jalan Maarof. Bangsar Village was formerly a large hypermarket named Hankyu Jaya that was renovated and transformed into the current mall after several years of stagnation. The Bangsar Village has proven to be a popular point of attraction for its shopping and dining opportunities, though it is only a small building that accommodates limited shops. Bangsar Village
Bangsar Shopping CentreBangsar Shopping Centre is located further down
from the main Bangsar area, very near the intersection which branches
off into the city on the right and into neighbouring area Hartamas
on the left. This mall has been in the area for a long time and
houses a decent range of fashion outlets, specialty shops, pharmacies
and a supermarket. A flea market takes place in the mall every Saturday
morning. Mid Valley MegamallThe best shopping opportunity is not actually within Bangsar itself,
but very near it; the Mid Valley Shopping mall is one of the largest in Southeast Asia and is arguably the Klang
Valley's most popular shopping attraction. From Bangsar, it is a
mere few minutes away using a large flyover that cuts across the
smaller Bangsar roads that lead to other areas. Pasar Malam in Bangsar
The Bangsar night market, or 'Pasar Malam', is an open-air bazaar that takes place among the streets of Telawi, right next to the main shop lot areas and across the Bangsar Village II mall. Like most pasar malams around Kuala Lumpur, Bangsar's night market has its fair share of wet and dry goods. On one corner, you can find fishmongers hawking huge snappers and red prawns, filling the air with the smell of the sea. On the other, hawkers sell the latest bootleg fashion, T-shirts and jeans hung from hangars below make-shift roofs. The night market takes place from early evening till late night, attracting a massive crown of local residents and expatriates. Because of the affluent nature of the crowd and area, goods here are more expensive than other night markets in Kuala Lumpur. However, the culture of bargaining can still be practised very much here, though the final figures probably won't net you as much savings in other places. A walk through the night market is a fascinating experience for first-timers. This is a huge shopping activity for locals, as almost everything under the sun can be found here, from clothing to shoes and food stuff to electronic gadgets. The sheer number of stalls, people and din of traders bargaining with customers is a colourful sight and a must-visit for those in Bangsar on Sundays. Highlights: Street Food (Char Koey Teow, Asam Laksa, Satay and the Otak-Otak). More Shopping in Asia:

To ride on its success and increase its size, a second block named
'Bangsar Village II' was built just across the
road which packs much more fashion outlets, restaurants and other
shopping attractions. Some of the fashion brands available here
include Guess, Aldo, Noir, Raoul, Liz Claiborne, Padini and Lara. Spas and fitness centres such as well
as many beauty saloons are nestled inside the building among the
multitude of shops.
